Re: Debian and IPV6



Mark,
  Thanks for the reply.  I tried your suggestion of adding the -- -6
option to the start-stop-daemon lines in /etc/init.d/ssh.  I then
tried to connect to the host with ssh and ssh -6.  Both attempts succeded,
as shown in the subsequent netstat -A inet6 -an

It represents my IPv4 connection with a IPv6 style address, however.
Does this imply that both connections are actually ip6 connections?

Would you mind sending me the sample lines from your sshd_config file
where you configured two listening lines with explicit addresses?

Thanks,
   Russ
